She not now, she said not now She not now, she said not now
It is an early Monday The sun is bright on the land No one is as he comes a walking Two bulky suitcases from his hands
He heads towards the tower that stands in the He through the door, he starts up the stairs The sound of his footsteps, the sound of his The sound of the when no one was there
I didn't know him He was of strange Always of sat there He seemed to change
He the catwalk, he put down his burden The sided clock began to chime 7 a.m., the day is So to do and so little time
He looks at the city no one had known him He looks at the sky where no one down He looks at his life and what it has him He looks for his shadow, it be found
He was a moody child Very to touch as a baby he never smiled too much No, no, no, no
You bug me, she ugly, she said Please hug me, I But she just sat
With the flat stare That she saves for me I'm home, when I'm home Take me
He laid out the rifles, he the shotgun He up the cartridges along the wall He knew he would them for his conversation If it went as it he planned, he might use them all
He said, "Listen you people I've got a You won't pay but I'll ask anyhow I found a way will get me an answer Been waiting to ask you 'till now, now"
Am I? I am a lover whose never kissed Am I? I am a whose not made a fist Am I? If I'm then there's so much I've missed How do I I exist?
Are you to me? Are you to me? Am I?
The first he spoke took the town by surprise One got Mrs. Gibbons above her eye It blew her through the window, wedged her against the poured from her face, staining the floor
He was of creepy, sort of a dunce I met him at the bar I only the poor boy once That's all, once, that was all
Bill was questioned as he stepped from his car Tom Scott ran the street but he never got that far The police there in minutes, they set up barricades He spoke right on over them in a circle In a dumb struck city his questions were sprayed
He knocked over Danny Tyson as he ran towards the Just about then the answers coming, sweet, sweet joy in the clock face, whining off the walls Reaching up to where he sat there, answering
Thirty-seven people got his so far Yes, he was reaching them right they are
She said not now, she not now She not now, she said not now
They set up an team, they asked for volunteers had to go and get him, that much was clear And the spread about him on the radios and TV's In appropriately sober tones asked, "Who can it be?"
He was a very boy, very taciturn Not much of a He did not want to No, no, no, no
They're to get me, they don't want to let me Stay in the bright too long It's getting on now, it's goin' to be soon now But oh, a wonderful sound
Mama, you nurse me? Rain me down the sweet of your kindness Mama, it's getting for me Won't you make me warm and mindless?
Mama, yes, you have me I never will you For your I you
The are all humming for me And I can hear them for me they'll be here but there's nothing to fear Not any more they've blasted the door
She not now, she said not now
As the dropped the gas he shouted, " Who cares ?" They could him laughing as they started up the stairs They stormed out on the catwalk, at the sun With their fusillade his answer had come
Am I? There is no way that you can me Am I? Though you put your fire inside me Am I? You've given me my answer, can't you I was, I am and now I be, I will be
